Multi Bounty Scanner

What This Skill Does

The Multi-Platform Bounty Scanner is an automated utility designed to streamline the discovery of bug bounty and open-source software (OSS) development opportunities. By aggregating listings from over 50 platforms, the skill eliminates the need for manual monitoring of websites, saving users significant time. The core functionality allows for sophisticated filtering by specific technology stacks, minimum reward thresholds, and preferred platforms. It maintains an internal state of seen bounties to ensure that the output only highlights new opportunities, making it an essential tool for bug hunters and freelance developers looking to optimize their workflow.

Installation

You can easily install this skill via the OpenClaw repository by executing: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dagangtj/multi-bounty-scanner. Alternatively, you can clone the source repository, navigate to the directory, make the scanner script executable with chmod +x scanner.js, and link it globally using npm link. Please ensure your system meets the requirements, which include Node.js version 18 or higher and the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated for initial platform integration.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for developers aiming to monetize their open-source contributions or bug hunting expertise. Use cases include setting up automated daily reports of high-reward issues in your preferred programming languages, monitoring for specific tech-stack bounties such as Rust or Python to match your skill set, and keeping a consistent feed of new projects from professional platforms. It is particularly valuable for users who want to integrate these findings directly into their CI/CD pipelines or local development environments using the provided cron integration.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, run a scan for all new Python bounties with a minimum reward of $200 and save the results to a file named python_bounties.json."
2. "Can you check for any new GitHub bounties today and summarize the titles and links for me?"
3. "Set up a daily automated task to scan for new javascript bounties and notify me if any reward exceeds $500."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize efficiency, utilize the ~/.bounty-scanner/config.json file to set global preferences, which saves time on redundant CLI arguments. Keep in mind that while the scanner currently has full support for GitHub, other platforms are actively being integrated; check the documentation for the latest updates on supported services. Be aware that this tool performs network requests and interacts with local file systems to track history, so ensure your security configurations are set appropriately. If you encounter rate-limiting from platforms, consider increasing the interval of your cron jobs.
